    While the lazy people who ASSUME, check out Cains Campaign manager Mark Block & then you will know all 6 pd campaign staffers & 44 workers aronud the country had to sign a non-disclosure form, Campaign trail, Cain sits on the Bus untill his name is announced, no mixing with the crowd, no shaking hands, just a southern drawl in Georgia, Alabama, southern states. Dis claimer statesment: Do not talk to Cain unless spoken to first. Barry Soetoro aka Barry Durham aka Barry Obama aka Barack Hussein Obama Campaigner in Chief compared to Herman Cain no Campaign & Disclaimer for staff of 6 pd & 44 volunteers across the country. Money from Koch brothers Charles & David Billionaires & Tobbaco Industry smoking Ad by Mark Block, & Cains words Let Brock be Brock sending what message to young voters? In 2001 Brock was banned from running Wisconsin Political Campaigns for 3 yrs & Brock agreed to pay 15,000 dollars. Acccused of Illegal Coordinating State Supreme Court Justice Jon Wilcox 1997 re-election campaign with a special interest group that favored school vouchers. Facts are Facts. Renagade tactics to win WH where there is smoke their is fire except on National TV Promo just smoke & mirrors! Cains Campaign Bus, don't speak to Cain unless he speaks first Like Don't Ask Don't Tell, Cains thought processs is Silence is Golden, Iowa's poll numbers show how good Brock is at fixing the votes & why he was banned for for 3 yrs in Wisconsin no involvement political campaigns. Acorn all over again? Renegade Campaign Tactics for Book sales only, Nieve people from 2 Drunk Driving Tickets & Home Forclosure, while stocking the shelfs at Target, "untill the Koch brothers" 2005 hired Brock to organize Wisconsin Tea Party, Cain Likes Brock because he thinks out of the Box or Scott Toomey of whom was at the center of a financial scandel when he was part of a Gay pride group in Madison Wisconsin & top Advisor to Cain, Brock told Cain to tell supporters that Toomey was not working on campaign simply work as an outside consultant. Lies & Deceite are hitting the surface again, voters have learned nothing from 2008 campaign, Cain has not been vetted by we the people, he is being vetted by his own actions rising to the surface. Get Informed or Don't Vote. 2012 Who Can Beat Barry Soetoro, not who can win a popularity contest! WH dosen't want Mitt Romney to be Rep Canidate do you know why? Barry Soetoro = Allah=Sharia Law!

  • JayJay - 13 years ago

    If he is all that gung ho about getting his name touted around the world in print perhaps he shouldn't have spent so much money on attorneys to keep another much more interesting book from being read. The author is Larry Sinclair; The name of the book is : "Barrack Obama and Larry Sinclair; Cocaine; Sex; Lies and Murder"! That book has been out there since 2007 and with the help of the media and Obamas' lawyers has had nary a mention although it can be bought and sold on Amazon.com. I had the book; read the book and believed every single word of it as did countless others that have done reviews on the book after having read it. Wonder if 2012 elections he can still have it covered up along with his school records; birth records and all other personal records he's had sealed. If there is nothing to hide why seal them? If the book is a pack of lies why not initiate a slander and defamation of character against the author??????? Why aren't any of these questions ever addressed about this man??? Whatever happened to good old investigative reporting of the facts by todays reporters? All afraid or just plain lazy?????

  • ERichardson - 13 years ago

    Will USA survive untill 2012? If so what will USA look like? What part of USA has not been tainted by WDC? How many News Media outlets do you trust? Will "Religion" or lack of make a difference in the why you will vote? Lets look closely at 1. Barry Soetoro aka Barry Durham aka Barry Durham aka Barack "Hussein"Obama Religion Quoran/Sharia Law/Islam & Rev Wright's church GDAmerica (20+ yrs) 2. Rick Perry's Pastor Jeffress-"Mormom Religion is a Cult" stated before Value Voters Coalition prior to introducing Gov Perry, never refuted by Perry. Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Saints in every state, county, town in USA & every country in the world. Belief is "In God We Trust" the same God the Founding Fathers prayed for Devine Guidence every morning before pen to paper to write the Constitution of the United States of America. The Saints joined Columbus in Europe to cross the uncharted waters to come to a New Land for Freedom of Religion-Freedom of Speach- everything our Constitution stands for. LDS members know from history the case of Rome, a wicked nation would not sumit to devine leadership & they soon become their own worst enemies. Distrust-Jealousy, unholy ambitions amoung the people themselves, the people lost confidence in their system of Gov. The European people demand "Change" & USA> 2008 We The People got Change-Poisen-Corruption-Dictatorship- Sharia Law-Barrys Rule of Law, Ex Order not Constitutional Rule of Law. The 10 Commandments, & The Pledge of Allienge to Our Flag of United States of America & to the Republic for Which it stands, One Nation Under God, Indivisable with Liberty & Justice for All. "Star Spangle Banner" Written by Francis Scott Key (MADE IN & For USA" copyright 1923 "Service Version" 3rd verse >O-thus be it ever when-free men shall stand be-tween their loved homes and the war's des-o-lation! Blest with vic-tory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land Praise the pow'r that thow hath made and preserve us a nation! Then-conquer-we must, for our cause it is just, And-this be our mot-to "In God We Trust! And The Star Spangled Banner in tri-umph shall wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave. Barry Soetoro has stated that bombs bursting in air gave proof the flag was still there Does Not Make Any Sense! Had to be told 1, to stand when the flag was passed by 2, patriotic to wear a flag pin in his lapel 3. Barry has his own God Allah! 4. Barry Deceived USA Citizens, He Swore to Protect our Constituion not Violate it not By-Pass it with Ex-Order, O' How Barry Hates USA & her People to Transform & Transfer Her Wealth- America is being destroyed from inside our boarders-by our own Government. God let We The People make a Presidental choice 2008 Romney vs Barry Soetoro vs Constitution/ Quoran---- God or Allah! Our God the creator in our Constitution will allow a Do-Over 2012 Romney vs Barry Soetoro & Finally The Truth Will Set Us Free! "Barry Soetoro" Czars- Admin- Pelosi- Congress-Senate- All involved with Treason & Tryanny will be Charged for War Crimes & Crimes against USA - All of our European Friends will be United & Our Special Friend & Allie Isreal will again live in peace. Only Then will the World be Saved for Future Generations to Live in Peace & Freedom of Religion "Christian" Propaganda will come to a Halt in Our USA after the Do-Over 2012 Election! God is not Religion-Religion is how you talk to your God. God is the creator of every spirit & body on earth . Religion is a Choice under Freedom vs Athiest No God under Free Choice!

    State Department & Tx Dollars being spent is NOTHING COMPARED TO C-SPAN 2 today. Our Military Commander's Air Force-Miranes-Army- Navy who make up the Best Armed Forces in the World, were put on the shopping block today by reps in Congress who serve on the armed forces committee. Barry Soetoro is breaking the trust with the USA Military, if USA Forces are commanded to cut their budgets, reduce the numbers in our military, pull in all military in foreign countries, another foreign country will move in & take over. Our neighbors depend on the support of USA regarding on Water-on Ground & in the Air. Barry went to war with Libya by ex-order to kill his & Rev Wrights friend Qudaffi, our military would have done the job 2 wks before Nato started the air fire, 1 billion cost & infractructure destroyed along with Libyan civilians. Our Military familys concerned housing-schools for children-healthcare- for an All Volunteer Force. High Ranking Military officers 40 yrs & 35 Yrs experience in forward employment of military & engagement of military, recrut & train, Barry wants to reduce the numbers of our service members to save assets, our Commanding Officers are working under an Illegal Commander in Chief, & can't do anything about his orders, today I witnessed our Military Leaders actually Beg to keep our military strong, Maritme Defense is a neccisity, just to show a military force in foreign regions, & all Foreign Countrys know USA Military's Strength, Barry creates crisies then never lets a good crises get away. Our Military is on the chopping block along with our security in the world, calling all military serving in foreign countries to come home. Military stated today, within 24 hrs our military can be anywhere their is a crises, Flood, Huracane-Riots- Devastation of any kind & other countries know this. The price to pay for USA being put on notice for down sizing our military, who will stop the Illegal Campaigner in Thief, & who will protect USA Citizens, once we allow Barry Soetoro to disect our Military & Cut its funding forcing it to downsize, USA will be vonuable to any country who wants to replace our once Military Might. Our Friends & Neighbors in the World are now allowed to be our Enimies, example Isreal being sacrificed under Barry the Indonesian, Isreal is being threatened everyday with Barrys support through Palistine back door secret promise of Ex-order to Isreal to give up settlement in East bank. What do we the people do, watch, wait for the next shoe to drop, Don't Ask Don't Tell forced upon our military now gay wifes are suing for their rights in the military whats in it for me, not love of country, would they give their life to save USA? The Navy Seal that died in Afgan crash, who raised his right hand & swore to protect & serve his country, gave the ultimate his life. America's Greatness is sliping awaybefore our eyes, Barry is moving so fast, he must know his time is running out, 1 yr left if he is lucky & no one questions him on his true idenity, America has a British born/ Indonesia Naturalized holding an Illegal Position in our Presidency/oval office destroying USA & our Military has to obey his orders while watching him destroy our country, cannot say a word (Court Marshal) Prison is what they would be looking at. I use to be proud of America, now Iam ashamed of her citizens who by now how been affected by Treason & Tryanny against our USA. The Devil is in the Details, What price for freedom blood & treasure will USA pay in our future ? Our Military can never be replaced after Barry destroys it from within, & our country Rule of Law has been tainted by foreign hands, voice & teleprompter with Arrogance towards we the people! How is it possible for God to Bless America, when her citizens are following the Devil? Forgive them Heavenly Father, For they know not what they Do? Because they are Un-Informed/sit on the sidelines & watch!

  • Disgusted - 13 years ago

    ben rupp, how arrogant and condescending are you! Why are you making assumption that the others expressing their opinions don't travel or communicate with individuals from other countries? Greta does NOT make mountains out of molehills. Greta does not say that B.O. is horrible, either. She is always fair and I for one, am pleased she allows others to express their opinions...that's democracy. You must be speaking to aliens from a dark planet! Oh, and B.O. really had quite a bit of credible past experience... basically a "community organizer," playing basketball and golfing with his rich friends. Now he is campaigning and roaming the country. Where should he be and WHAT should he be focused on? Think about it. Maybe you should spend more time in the USA and pay attention to what is really going on in our country. I would also suggest that you watch Sean Hannity regularly. He is a straight shooter, tells it like it is and knows what he talking about. I'm not being condescending to you but am just shocked that you make false assumptions about these bloggers. Maybe you could research the Acorn Group and B.O.'s actual past credentials.

  • Elizabeth Nelson-Vreeland - 13 years ago

    Kudos to Lottie Stanley rebutting Ben Rupp's comment that "we are ganging up on Obama". John McCain and Sarah Palin had more experience in government business than Obama had in the Senate and Presidency combined. Obama has done more campaigning than any other person. I would vote for Herman Cain against Obama every single time just because he has actually ran a business that succeeded~provided jobs, provided a service to the community and made a profit to continue to stay open. Wow, is that called capitalism. If you want wealth distribution then go to a socialist country. I personally would never want to live in a socialist country. Government needs to be fiscally responsible as the rest of us. I don't know of anyone who can live by spending more than they have. That why government has become a giant, when government should be much smaller than it is. American was founded on Freedom, which is not free, hard work, and the right to choose. Obama means one thing to me and I have a bumper sticker on my 1989 Chevrolet suburban (that is completely paid and that equates to lower vehicle insurance)~One Big Ass Mistake American. I am attending a community college, pay $630 (utilities included) for a little 2 bedroom house~650 sq ft, $50 for a huge storage unit, and $85 for three cell phones~myself, my husband and my mother (who happens to live with me because she can not afford to live on her social security when renting a room and utilities take 50 to 60 percent of her income). Between my 10 % disability rating from the VA, my husband's social security, and a small amount of social security death benefits that my middle son receives for his late father (who was diagnosed age 23 with Chronic Progressive Multiple Sclerosis and legally blind) a total sum of $ 1407 per month and I always pay the Rent, Vehicle Insurance, cell phone bill and a mattress bill every month. Put gasoline in the truck and put food on the table and once in a while rent movies or go to the $ 3 dollar movie theater to see movies that already have been playing in town for several months. THAT IS CALLED LIVING WITHIN YOUR MEANS. Do I plan to continue living this way?! No. I plan on working for more than the minimum wage and finally do some serious savings unlike our current president who thinks he can talk and spend himself out of debt and wants to turn this country into a socialist country instead of a free country. God Bless our Troops and may God Bless the Oval Office. Sincerely SOMEONE who lives within their means.

  • tshaun - 13 years ago

    I'm 56 years old. And this is another reason why Obama and his administration is the worst presidency in my lifetime.

  • Rosario Martinez - 13 years ago

    Enough it's enought. Did the State Dept. asked for our permission (tax payers money) to continue spending our money? He is also going to get pay royalties for his book which was purchase with our money??....isn't that just great..!!! Also aren't we paying for his road trip around the USA for the last several months.??

  • Lottie Stanley - 13 years ago

    Especially to Ben Rupp,

    Most of Obama's life has been dedicated to campaigning. And, I'd say that he's been lucky enough to be in the right places at the right times. My first and continued complaint about him is that he was and is not experienced enough to be President of the United States of America.

    He had and has never created a job (except for appointing his friends as 'czars' to bypass Congressional appointments) or ever even been part of running a company, besides the fact that he was actually only in the Senate for about six months before he started campaigning for President.

    How much did he himself actually accomplish in the Senate? How much experience has he had with REAL life!? He still believes that the U.S. can continue to spend more money than it takes in, and rather than adjust the budget, he would rather increase the taxes.

    I can bet you if he increased the taxes, he wouldn't care to cut his spending spree... he would just continue to increase the spending... especially on his 'pet' projects... "Solyndra" anyone?

    How many jobs should that money been able to 'supply'? ...but the government is NOT a specialist in creating jobs. That is what capitalism and the private sector needs to work on, NOT the government.

  • Elizabeth - 13 years ago

  • ben rupp - 13 years ago

    I'd bet 99% of the comments come from people who haven't spoken to individuals in other countries about President Obama. I'm not faulting them for not traveling but wanted to leave a comment; relaying that 100% of my conversations with various types of people from about 7 different countries have been positive about President Obama.
    Greta, you really did your job, getting people negatively excited, making a mt out of a mole hill. No matter the specifics; President Obama is always horrible.
    The man's story and accomplishments are inspiring! He is our best global PR, illustrating the American dream. I'm all for this practice. However, he shouldn't receive any profit.
    I thought there would be a large % against but this it's amazing how one-sided the viewers/commenters are. Thank God for our democracy!
    There's a big world out there. I travel for pleasure, work and mission trips. It doesn't cost much more than a typical Disney vacation. Shop for the flight; other expenses can be cheaper than US costs.

  • Sookiebell - 13 years ago

    I'm FED UP with this anti-American person in our Oval Office thinking he can do whatever he pleases...arbitrarily signing bills into law and bypassing the House and Senate! As a Senior, I can say that little "pocket-change" money spent on his books, (which he probably didn't even write), means a LOT when Social Security cost-of-living raises were denied to us in these recession/inflation years. Just WHO does he think he IS?? I say IMPEACH the guy and send him overseas, a place he seems to prefer anyway. (Maybe George Soros will buy him a country of his own so he can screw it up. And just maybe he'll take Holder and all the other snotty Czars with him.)

  • Tisha - 13 years ago

  • joanne - 13 years ago

    To Nancy Nelms- well said! I, too, have noticed that he never has been presidential and has just continued campaigning these three years and making horrendous decisions. I think all teleprompters should be banned and then it would be emphasized how inept he is. He is on a campaign trip now (would he have the audacity to think we don't know this?) He and wife have spent taxpayer money to party their way in D.C. and on overseas trips at great expense to taxpayers in a time of great economic strife created by the OBAMA DEFICIT PROGRAM.
    ENOUGH SAID.

    love your show, u and o'rielly and hannidy have the BEST shows on fox by far, i love fox i watch it 24/7

  • Karen - 13 years ago

    I'm sick and tired of the President doing what ever he wants with our money, while most Americans are struggling to make ends meet.

  • David W. - 13 years ago

    I love the way Sean Hannity refers to B.O. as the"anointed one." I wonder what Our Founding Fathers would think of the poor choices he has made. I predict that the"anointed one" will go down in history as the absolute best TelePrompTer reader in the USA! Oh, might I add that he has done a superb job raising our national debt.

  • joanne - 13 years ago

    You all are so right. Don't give him another opportunity to waste our tax dollars. His stimulus bills monies were funneled to liberal coffers. No one else has run up a deficit as high as this person and then tells us to tighten our belts. He has ruined the economy. Wake up people! Where have our rights as American citizens gone? Obama bypasses congress to put into action what he wants to do. He studied constitutional law? Why? To undermine all that is sacred in U.S. History. I asked why he couldn't be impeached well over a year ago and received no answer. He malines the U.S. at every opportunity and makes decisions as if he is running a kingdom. I hope all who voted this narcissist into power have seen the error of your ways. Make 2012 count!

    If the liberal press were doing their jobs instead of playing lackey, he would have been long gone.

  • Lottie Stanley - 13 years ago

    Knowing President Obama's arrogance, I'm surprised he hadn't already donated his books all over the world. How special of him to allow taxpayers to pay for him to advertise himself. Maybe he DOES think he should be "President of the World".

    Even more seriously, the taxpayers should be repaid for such 'Audacity'!!!!

  • nancy nelms - 13 years ago

    Considering the increasingly dangerous state of our country's economy, this waste of taxpayer dollars for President O'Bama's personal gain is outrageous - but then, so is his recent campaign tour, funded by taxpayer dollars under the guise of government business. His bad business decisions regarding his green agenda, where so much money has been lost funding losing propositions, does not inspire confidence either. When is he going to go back to Washington, do his job and quit running all over the place, begging for votes? If he'd just do what he's being paid to do, he would earn those votes, instead of having to beg for them.

  • linda robinson - 13 years ago

    Obama cotinues to rip taxpayers off. I suppose his books made top seller list. He has never gotten out of campaign mode and every time he fires up airforce one it costs us millions !!

  • Lori - 13 years ago

    Greta,

    Keep up the good work in exposing all of the wasteful spending that goes on in our government. It is absolutely amazing how politicians talk about "billions" of dollars as though it is pocket change. We work too hard for our money to have it thrown away on so many useless projects. Uncle Sam just thinks "Oh well there is more where that came from". Is anyone ever going to be held accountable?

    Thanks again!

  • debbie - 13 years ago

    It is a crime for Obama to take our money to buy his own personal book and then give it to people around the world. It is called stealing.

  • HELEN - 13 years ago

    I proudly didn't vote for Obama.

    However, I do plan to vote for Herman Cain. How refreshing that will be.

    Why would anyone want to read a book associated with and/or about BO?

  • Allen Gordon - 13 years ago

    Another onorus attempt at transparency from Obama.
    He has done so well in the past
    You know.

  • runnel gaspard - 13 years ago

    OBAMA SHOULD PAY FOR HIS OWN BOOK TO GIVE AWAY NOT THE TAS PAYER !!!! HE IS DOING WHAT KING WOULD DO. HE THINK THAT HE CAN DO JUST WHAT HE WANT BECAUSE HE IS BARACK NOT A LEADER..

  • BobK - 13 years ago

    Someone should tell Joe Biden Spending $79,000 on Obamas Books as gifts for our foreign friends as well as his poor handling of the distribution of the trillion dollar stimulus money is the real reason rape and murder is going up in the United States. Had the dems properly used this money the U. S. could have had plenty money to add all the police men the states needed.

  • no mo obozo - 13 years ago

    In an unrelated question ....
    How does a guy graduate from Columbia & Harvard & still not understand ECON 101 ????

  • Delores W. - 13 years ago

    Greta,
    I totally agree with the comment made by Carol Sikel. I also want to add that the "anointed one" is arrogant.

  • BOSSYMAMA - 13 years ago

    Greta, I'm not a "legal eagle" but isn't this a conflict of interest? What's it going to take to put the brakes on this man? SO UNPRESIDENTAL!!!

  • Alicia Corlew - 13 years ago

    Another outrageous act by this dishonest man. I can't bear to even hear him speak. His persona reeks of phoniness!

  • Darrell S. Markham HMC/USN/RET - 13 years ago

    First time Gretha, and I'm hot, but then I would not expect anything different in regards to the sale of his books with my tax dollars, I sure hope the IRS does an aduit on him this year. I do enjoy your show and your professionalism. A job well done.

  • Dennis Varin - 13 years ago

    This is just another example of goverment waste! It may be small, but we need to stop all of this kind of spending.

  • sue - 13 years ago

    He is ruining and bankrupting our country.

  • Pamela Heinbaugh - 13 years ago

    How can this even be allowed? It's NOT his money!!

  • mike d - 13 years ago

    impeach his a$$

  • Steve - 13 years ago

    Not just no ....... HELL NO !!!

  • Joanie - 13 years ago

    Why has this guy not been held accountable for all the stuff he has just done on his own (i.e., sending our miliarty forces to Africa without Congressional apprvoval...sending money to Muslims as he wishes...flying his puppy to join his family on many of their elaborate trips on a solo flight on Airforce One...when is he going to be held accountable? I just don't understand!!!!

  • whenisitenough - 13 years ago

    This is just Totally Wrong........We need NEWT for President. =)

  • dennis k - 13 years ago

    why is there no investigation into this waste? if obama would stop wasting our money, he would NOT need to raise taxes. why doesn't someone explain this to him? and where;s the investigation?

  • vern - 13 years ago

    narcissism

  • Sue - 13 years ago

    Why can we do nothing about what he does? Are there no rules for him? Recall the books!

  • Dennis Michael - 13 years ago

    NOOOOOO
    How do we get our money back...and Obama out of office

  • Laurann Gilley - 13 years ago

    Absolutley NOT.......Just like a bunch of Washington beaurocrats!!!!!!

  • Sue - 13 years ago

    When american citizens will begin to see that this admininstration has been robbing from us and has no shame?

  • Robin Layman - 13 years ago

    I am sick and tired of our money being wasted on stupid liberal crap!! Obama is the worst President ever and he believes he and his cronies in crime are above the law!! 2012 is the time to clean up the trash!! Enough said!!!

  • kathryn fagan - 13 years ago

    Obama is self serving for his own gains. This is not only arrogant, as another commented but Narcissistic. There was a reason no one ever heard of him before he ran for the presidency, So Sad!!

  • Liz Herbig - 13 years ago

    What an arrogant display of power; the sad truth is that he gets away with everything. No matter how much or how many times the truth is exposed somehow he always comes out looking like a hero everytime. He has the power to manipulate; very dangerous. Reminds me of many other history characters....Lord save us from this narcissistic maniac!

  • Gwells - 13 years ago

    Ok I had gone to bed for the night but cannot take anymore, that our foreign embassies would give books away and they happen to be the Obama books, with people out of work and I could go on and on and on what abuses American tax layers are being subjected to! Is to coin a Bachman overused phrase is "just wrong!"

  • Derrall Foster - 13 years ago

    Not no but HELL NO
    Ms Greata what about the Small Arms Treaty they are pushing in UN to take away our gun rights and Oboma is saying he will sign it as ex order? Look into it through NRA and Citizens Right to Keep and Bear Arms. Please if this is real which I think it is put it out to all the public
    Thanks
    Derrall

  • Brian Ross - 13 years ago

    Give me a break!!! Not only is Obama corting ZILLIONAIRES to get elected but now he wants to make a little pocket change on the side taking it out of my empty pockets!!!

  • Rackets - 13 years ago

    Depending on the quality of the paper in the books, the OUTHOUSE would be a good place for these books. At least some good would come from the waste of taxpayer's money!

  • Diane - 13 years ago

    Obama should be billed for those and the $80K put back into taxpayers pockets.

  • Bill Gordon - 13 years ago

    Since Obama is the author, is he getting royalties from the sale of these books? No wonder he is shown writing personal checks to needy Americans. He's giving them (and us) our own money back. Does that qualify as money laundering?

  • Jack Allshouse - 13 years ago

    Seems to me this would be a comflict of interest.

  • Rebecca Dennee - 13 years ago

    Campaigning the world...--- ugh- every day he and his "followers" amaze me... which the whole country would hear some of this stuff that is happening right under their noses- makes me ill!

  • Shirley - 13 years ago

  • chad ellison - 13 years ago

    mr. obama needs to pay the tax payers back for this. This country is already to far in debt to pay for his books.

  • Paul A. Herrmann - 13 years ago

    Collect the taxes!!!!

  • CAROL - 13 years ago

    LOOKS LIKE WE THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN

  • Lory Dunlap - 13 years ago

    Every time I think his arrogance has reached it's zenith...well

  • John Jacob - 13 years ago

    Not just no, but hell no! How big is Obama's ego?

  • Linda - 13 years ago

    Each and every dollar should be returned! Obama has made enough money off of us, the taxpayers. WE are paying for his campaign, his vacations, Beau's private airplane, and NOW WE ARE BUYING HIS BOOKS?

    Try educating HIM and the rest of the world on our constitution, that would be a nice change, and well worth our taxpayer dollars!

  • Jack - 13 years ago

    Seems to me this would be a comflict of interest.

  • sharon - 13 years ago

    well, isn't he running for president of the WORLD?

  • Mary McCartney - 13 years ago

    How many more ways can they find to throw our money away?

  • Lorice Pinney - 13 years ago

    No but if purchased the all royalties should be given back to tax payers

  • Frank Norton - 13 years ago

    Greta,

    I think that President Obama is an example that every American can grow up and be the President. Using his books to tout the greatness of American is ok by me. PS. I voted for McCain and will be voting for the Republican candidate.

    Frank

  • vic - 13 years ago

    Using our money to buy his book ? That is obscene.

    Obama had better not be paid commission on those sales! The audacity of double dipping!

  • Barbara Cox - 13 years ago

    Bad propaganda!

  • Carol Sikel - 13 years ago

    Greta,
    We need the world to know about the constitution, our beliefs, our country and lifestyle.
    Obama is not a part of this heritage. He is not a representative of the United States.

  • Betty Scuzzese - 13 years ago

    Isn't this after the fact - how do we get our money back??????????
